@genehack yeah they grow them different around here.

@joelle @genehack I have the same thought every time I see this car. They’re a neighbor so it comes up frequently.

None of my clocks changed for the end of Daylight Savings Time, which is good and correct because we don’t have it here.
But neither did any of my Google Calendar meetings, which doesn’t seem right. My coworkers on the East Coast are now an hour closer to me.
I think.
EDIT: It’s all good after a browser restart. It may have been all good before. Time blindness, DST, and automated calendars are a volatile mix.

Nope nope okay there we go. Needed to close and reopen the browser.

I’ve been told that my complete lack of hesitation about fishing foreign objects out of the dog’s mouth – often before anyone including me has fully registered what is amiss, the closest I’ll ever get to an ADHD superpower – would have been a solid foundation for parenting.
Remembering that time I ate my mom’s oil paints, I can understand the assertion.

@chuck I felt a little better about myself when I realized my social network venting is a consistent component of my second brain system.

@lmorchard @chuck It’s on my task list, along with doing something with the archives from various social networking platforms.

@benbrown wait I assumed we were talking about giant soft pretzels. For hard pretzels, eight bags.

@benbrown remember to have some water occasionally and the sky’s the limit
ignore the muffled shouting. I have not forcibly restrained any nutritionists. There is nothing to see here. Go enjoy your pretzels.

@danderson dunno how much you’re into turn of the century alt-folk, but this immediately popped into my head:

Somedays I’m The Brain. Some days I’m Pinky. Most days it seems I’m both, locked in eternal combat for control of the human suit.

@WuMargaret Closest I got to a nickname in school was when folks kept misspelling my name as “Brain” and then just kinda shrugging when i tried to correct them.
hackers.town: 2024-11-04 Mon 19:30
@WuMargaret I was named after my uncle, who by all accounts was pretty cool.
Most folks called me by name, though there have been recurring descriptives like “goat boy over there”
And I’d just glare and finish chewing on the soda can.

@malanalysis @catsalad FAFO is the high level overview class for non-majors.

Thank goodness I get to obsess over work stuff tomorrow instead of paying attention to the actual world around me.
